For a 5" mouth, you should see about 1/8" to 1/4" of the mouthpiece visible on both sides of the horse's lips for a proper fit.Q: Why is the mouthpiece starting to rust?Don't worry—that's by design! The Sweet Iron material is intended to oxidize (rust), which creates a sweet taste that horses love and encourages a moist, responsive mouth.Q: What does Myler Level 2-3 mean?This level is for horses with a solid disposition and basic training that are ready to move toward collection. It offers more tongue relief than a Level 1 or 2 bit, rewarding the horse for staying soft and vertical.Item Number/SKU: 89-64365
